    4: General Description NV10 Validator - the next generation of Smiley® Bank Note validators

    The NV10 Bank Note Validator is a compact note-validating machine (see figure 1), suitable for most money machines. It will accept up to 15 different denominations of notes in the serial control mode, pulse mode and binary mode, 4 notes in parallel mode and will cope with different designs of banknotes having the same value such as are found in the United Kingdom.

    The NV10 Validator leaves the factory containing at least one currency data set so that it is ready for immediate installation. If it is desired to change the currency data set this may be done using either the NV10 to NV10 currency cloning system or the PC based Currency Management software.

    New currencies and applications are being tested all the time, please refer to our web site or contact the factory for information concerning specific currencies if they are not already included on our approved list.

    The NV10 has been designed for easy installation in most machines. The new stepped “smiling mouth” allows insertion of notes with one hand and simplifies the note handling mechanism.

    Interfacing the Validator is very simple, with the choice of the following protocols:

    • Parallel open collector outputs

    • Pulse stream output

    • Binary

    • Smiley® Secure Protocol (SSP) secure serial communications

    • Simple serial I/O communications

    • MDB interface protocol

    • CCTalk

    • Extended Interface / USA Serial (NIS)

    The details of the parallel, pulse and SSP can be found in the machine interface protocol section of this manual.

    Special Modes

    The special interface depends on the firmware that is used in the NV10, the firmware shipped as standard is CCTalk worldwide unless specified by order. The table below shows all the options that can be downloaded by the user:

    BINARY

    SIO

    MDB

    CCTalk

    CCnet

    NIS & Unencrypted CCtalk – Available by request only

    Information on each of these interfaces can be found in the ‘machine interfaces protocol section’ of this manual.

    5.2: LED status codes. The three status LED’s are located to the left of the DIPswitches on the right hand side of the unit and are used to indicate a variety of status signals. The red status is used to indicate system problems, while the green status indicates system health, these are described below in table 2.

    LED Status Description Slow flashing GREEN led Heartbeat (Slow = 1 second period).

    In normal RUN operation, when the NV10 is ready to read a note, the green status led will flash slowly ("Heartbeat") to signal a “healthy” status.

    On Start Up - Flashing RED one second period. During operation - Flashing RED one second period

    Firmware Fail NV10 has a Transportation error, somewhere in the note path

    On Start Up Fast - Flashing Red (fast = half second period). During operation- Flashing Red (fast = half second period).

    Dataset fail NV10 cannot calibrate, sensor(s) may be blocked.

    Permanent RED Memory has been corrupted Flashing AMBER and bezel lights Power supply is incorrect, check specification

  • NV10 Operations Manual – GA333-5

    7: Machine Interface: Protocols The NV10 is set to the required Protocol/Interface, by setting the DIPswitches on the right hand side of the NV10 to the position detailed below:

    7.1:Parallel input and output To use parallel output for 4 notes/channel acceptance, DIPswitches 3 and 4 must be set down. This mode is selectable regardless of which extended interface is programmed into the validator

    (Dipswitch 2 is not functional in this mode)

    Vend Signals: (Pins 1 to 4). The four channels have their own individual outputs. If a note is recognised then the relevant channel line is set low for 100 + 3 milliseconds. Pulses outside these limits should be rejected as a precaution against false triggering due to noise.

    Busy Output: (Pin 9). This is a general-purpose busy signal. It is active low while the NV10 is in operation.

    Escrow Control (Pin 10) Hold this pin low to enable the single note escrow function

    (see Appendix D ):

    If the host machine aborts the transaction by setting the corresponding inhibit input high, the note is returned immediately.

    The host machine can force the return of the note to the customer by setting the inhibit line high, at any time before the end of the 30 second time-out. Setting high, all the inhibits, causes a note reject.

    In the event of a note being forcibly removed from the mouth of the NV10 during the 30-second interval, the NV10 will go out of service for 45 seconds.

    Inhibit Operation

    (Pins 5 to 8) Channels 1 to 4 have their own inhibit input to allow the host machine to refuse specified notes. To inhibit a channel, the relevant inhibit input must be held high. To enable a channel the corresponding inhibits must be latched low so that notes may be accepted.

    If all four inhibits are high simultaneously then the NV10 will not read in any notes. In this mode, if a note is inserted the motor will run in reverse preventing the insertion of a note and the bezel will not illuminate.

    All four inhibits may be connected together to create a 'global' inhibit. In this way the NV10 may be brought in and out of operation by the host machine.

    7.2:Pulse Stream Output To use pulse stream output for acceptance of up to 16 channel / note acceptance, DIPswitch 3 must be down and DIPswitch 4 must be up. This mode is selectable regardless of which extended interface is programmed into the validator

    Vend Signal (Pins 1): When a note is recognised vend 1 will pulse a pre set number times, the number of pulses and the timing is set in the NV10 currency manager program (and set to default values with supplied dataset).

    DIPswitch 2: The number of pulses is multiplied by a factor of four for USA Dollar datasets, depending on the position of switch 2. If the switch is down then the number of pulses is as programmed in the dataset output. If the switch is up then four times this number of pulses is output.

    Busy Output: (Pin 9). This is a general-purpose busy signal. It is active low while the NV10 is in operation.

    Escrow Control: (Pin 10) Hold this pin low to enable the single note escrow function

    (see Appendix D ):

    If the host machine aborts the transaction by setting the corresponding inhibit input high, the note is returned immediately.

    The host machine can force the return of the note to the customer by setting the inhibit line high, at any time before the end of the 30 second time-out. Setting high, all the inhibits, causes a note reject.

  • NV10 Operations Manual – GA333-5 In the event of a note being forcibly removed from the mouth of the NV10 during the 30-second interval, the NV10 will go out of service for 45 seconds.

    Inhibit Operation: (Pins 5 to 8) Channels 1 to 4 have their own individual inhibit input to allow the host machine to refuse specified values of notes. To inhibit a channel, the relevant inhibit input must be held high. To enable a channel the corresponding inhibit line must be latched low so that notes may be accepted.

    If all four inhibits are high simultaneously then the NV10will not read in any notes. All four inhibits may be connected together to create a 'global' inhibit. In this way the NV10 may be brought in and out of operation by the host machine.

    Note: Channels higher than four cannot be individually inhibited, but will be globally inhibited if inhibits 1 to 4 are inhibited.

    7.3: Binary Output To use Binary mode DIPswitches 3 and 4 must be in the Up position to select ‘Special’ mode on the validator and the BIN option of the interface firmware must be loaded into the NV9.

    (Dipswitch 2 is not functional in this mode).

    In the event that the machine needs more than 4 notes to be recognised, but the host machine cannot take advantage of the serial communication methods then the NV10 can be set to give a binary pattern output on the four parallel output pins.

    If the NV10 is set to binary mode it will issue the vend signals as a binary pattern on the parallel outputs for 100 + 3ms. In this way a maximum of 15 different notes can be accepted and 4 notes individually inhibited.

    Vend Signals (Pins 1 to 4). The four channels have their own individual outputs. If a note is recognised then the binary representation of the channel number will be pulled low for 100 + 3ms. Pulses outside these limits will be rejected as a precaution against false triggering due to noise.

    Busy Output: (Pin 9). This is a general-purpose busy signal. It is active low while the NV10 is in operation.

    7.4: Serial Input/Output – Baud Default 300 Existing Smiley® NV4 users may already be using the serial input/output facility. The NV10 Validator also supports this system. However this interface is not recommended for new designs, the Smiley® Secure Protocol SSP interface is recommended. CAUTION:

    • THE NV10 DOES NOT SUPPORT THE SIMPLE SERIAL DATA OUT ONLY MODE AS AVAILABLE ON NV4, NV3 and NV2. IT ONLY SUPPORTS THE SERIAL DATA INPUT/OUTPUT MODE.

    • THE HOST MACHINE DOES NOT ECHO MESSAGES BACK TO THE VALIDATOR.

    • THE NV10 DOES NOT OPERATE IN TRUE RS232 MODE.

    • THE NV10 WILL NOT ENABLE IN SERIAL I/O MODE IF INHIBIT 3 LINE IS HELD LOW ON POWER UP

    NOTE: The NV9 will not be enabled in serial I/O mode if Inhibit 3 line is held low when the unit is powered up

    To use simple serial mode DIPswitches 3 and 4 must be in the Up position to select ‘Special’ mode on the validator and the SIO option of the interface firmware must be loaded into the NV9.

    (Dipswitch 2 is not functional in this mode)

    Commands are provided to fully control the operation of the validator. The notes to be accepted and rejected can be set and a single note escrow mode can be enabled. In simple serial mode single byte commands are transmitted to the Validator, the Validator echoes each valid command it receives.

    The Host machine needs to wait for an echo to a command it sends or for 1 second after sending a command before it sends its next command. If it does not receive an echo response and times out after 1 second then it should retry sending the previous command.

    The serial I/O mode supports two baud rates; 300 baud when Inhibit 2 is pulled high or left floating at power up and 9600 Baud rate when Inhibit 2 line is held low at power up. The data is formatted as follows (see figure 6):

    7.5: Serial Input/Output - SI2 (Baud Default 9600) This mode is identical to the SIO mode detailed in chapter 7.4 with the exception of the Baud rate used and the data format.

    - Only 9600 baud rate is available.

    - Inhibit 2 has no function.

    - All Transmit and Receive codes and Example protocols are the same as in Chapter 7.4 (See tables 6 and 7 above)

    The data is formatted as follows:

    7.6: Smiley® Secure Protocol – SSP Note: Please refer to the Smiley® Secure Protocol (SSP) Specification (ITL Drawing GA138) on the

    web site for full details of this Protocol.

    To use SSP mode DIPswitch 3 must be set up and DIPswitch 4 must be set down. This mode is selectable regardless of which extended interface is programmed into the validator

    (DIPswitch 2 is non functional in this mode).

    SSP is a secure serial interface specifically designed to address the problems experienced by cash handling systems in gaming machines. Problems such as acceptor swapping, reprogramming acceptors and line tapping are all addressed. This interface is recommended for all new designs. The interface uses a master slave model, the host machine is the master and the peripherals (note acceptor, coin acceptor or coin hopper) are the slaves.

    Data transfer is over a multi-drop bus using clock asynchronous serial transmission with simple open collector drivers. The integrity of data transfers is ensured through the use of 16 bit CRC checksums on all packets.

    Each SSP device of a particular type has a unique serial number; this number is used to validate each device in the direction of credit transfer before transactions can take place.

    Commands are currently provided for coin acceptors, note acceptors and coin hoppers. All current features of these devices are supported.

    Features:

    • Serial control of Note / Coin Validators and Hoppers

    • 4 wire (Tx, Rx, +V, Gnd) system

    • RS232 (like) - open collector driver

    • High Speed 9600 Baud Rate

    • 16 bit CRC error checking

    7.7: Multi-Drop Bus / Internal Communications Protocol (MDB/ICP) To use the MDB mode an IF5 interface box must be fitted to the NV10 Validator. DIPswitches 3 & 4 must be in the up position to select ‘Special’ mode on the validator and the MDB option of the interface firmware loaded into the NV10.

    (DIPswitch 2 is non functional in this mode).

    Note:

    Please refer to the Multi-Drop Bus specification for the suggested current drive circuits available.

    The NV10 supports the MDB protocol version 1, level 1

    For detailed information and full protocol specification please refer to: www.vending.org

    MDB defines a serial bus interface used in electrically controlled vending machines (see figure 7). This is a 9600 Baud Master-Slave system where the NV10 MDB banknote validator is a slave to a master controller. A master has the capability of communicating with 32 peripherals or slaves. The master is defined as the Vending Machine Controller (VMC).

    Transmit

    Receive

    Ground Signal

    NV10 MDB Slave

    Figure 7- MDB Opto Isolated Input / Output circuits

    The NV10 MDB banknote Validator is assigned a unique address – 00110XXX binary (30H). The VMC polls the bus to detect presence of the NV10 MDB Validators or to get information on current status of the Validators.

    The Validators respond when asked for activity with an acknowledgment, negative acknowledgment or a specific reply, depending on its current status. Bus crashes are avoided as the Validators respond to being polled only by the VMC.

    The international country code must be set for the country in which the Validators will be operating. This is the international telephone code for that country. The code is represented as two bytes

    For the USA the country code is 00 01

    For Great Britain the code is 00 44

    The scaling factor must also be specified for each Validator. All accepted note values must be evenly divisible by this number.

    • This number would be set to 100 (Hex 64) for the Euro or Great Britain.

    • The number would be set to 1000 (Hex 03E8) for Romania.

    • The number of decimal places must also be programmed for each Validators

    • The number would be set to 2 for Euro or USA

    • The number would be set to 3 for Romania

    7.8: CCTalk Protocol - CCT The NV10 supports the CCTalk serial protocol for easy interfacing with host machines that support this protocol.

    To use CCTalk mode DIPswitches 3 and 4 must be in the Up position to select ‘Special’ mode on the validator and the CCT option of the interface firmware must be loaded into the NV10.

    (DIPswitch 2 is non functional in this mode).

    Pin out connections on NV10 for CCTalk are shown below (see figure 7) looking at the connection pins on the NV10 interface connector. All communications with the note validator must be encrypted using the encryption key, the default encryption key will be printed on the label of the NV10.

    Note: For detailed information and full protocol specification please refer to www.cctalk.org

    The default encryption key will be set to the key code printed on the label on the NV10. If the key is changed to a new stored key by the host machine, the key can be reset to the default by the following the steps below.

    • Power off NV10.

    • Set all 4 DIPswitches to the Up position.

    • Apply power (no CCTalk comms).

    • Red LED will now be flashing.

    • Set DIP switches 1 and 2 down.

    7.9 Cash Code Serial Protocol – Ccnet The NV10 supports the ccnet serial protocol for easy interfacing with host machines that support this protocol.

    To use CCnet mode DIPswitches 3 and 4 must be in the Up position to select ‘Special’ mode on the validator and the CCN option of the interface firmware must be loaded into the NV10.

    DIPswitch 2 is used to select default Baud rate –

    Down = 9600

    UP = 19200

    Pin out connections on NV10 for ccnet are the same as for SSP.

    Note: For detailed information and full protocol specification, please refer to the CashCode specification

    7.10: Non Isolated Serial Protocol. (NIS) To use NIS mode DIPswitches 3 and 4 must be in the Up position to select ‘Special’ mode on the validator and the NIS option of the interface firmware must be loaded into the NV10.

    (DIPswitch 2 is not functional in this mode).

    There is a single output DATA line from the NV10. There are three control lines, two from the controller ‘’ACCEPT ENABLE’’ and ‘’SEND’’ and one from the Validators IRQ (INTERRUPT) (see table 8).

    CAUTIONS:

    PLEASE NOTE THAT THE NV9 IS REQUIRED TO OPERATE ON A +12VOLT DC POWER SUPPLY.

    THE NV9 GROUND MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE GROUND OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM.

    8: Updating Currency and Firmware Note: Validators are supplied already programmed from the factory Please skip this section unless

    the validators need to be re-programmed with a new note or currency.

    The NV10 Validator may only be programmed using the ITL Bank Note Validator Currency Manager 2.9.7 or greater or by cloning from a master unit:

    8.1: ITL Bank Note Validator Currency Manager In order to use the ITL Bank Note Validator Currency Manager software, which is supplied with a range of currencies, It must be installed from the DA1/DA2 CD or by downloading from the web site. For the PC System Specification refer to (see Appendix E).

    A list of currently supported currencies is maintained on our web site, where new releases can be downloaded. Further details are available from [email protected]

    For details on how to register for the first time log in, please refer to Appendix F.

    8.2: NV10 – NV10 Copy (Cloning) Note: Cloning is only available with Firmware 3.19 or lower.

    Overview This facility exists for a NV10 Note Validator to copy a program and settings to another NV10. The “Master” Validator will transmit the currency data and upgrade the Slave’s Firmware. For cloning it is recommended to use the Cloning Kit 2 (CK2).

    Requirements • Master to have firmware 3.15 or greater

    • Cloning Kit 2

    • 12V supply.

    Connection to MASTER

    Connection to SLAVE

    Connection to HOST

    Figure 8 – Cloning Kit 2

    Start-up configuration

    NOTE: The Master will only update the Slave’s Firmware if the version of the Master is greater than that of the Slave. If the Master Firmware is less than the Slave, then the copy process is aborted.

    If the Firmware on the Master and Slave are the same, only the currency will be transferred.

    • Remove the power from the Master and Slave units.

    • Set DIPswitches 3 UP and 4 DOWN to select SSP interface mode on both NV10s.

  • NV10 Operations Manual – GA333-5 • Use the NV10 Cloning Kit 2 (CK2) and connect the two units together as per CK2 label.

    • Turn on the +12V power supply.

    Cloning process. • Master unit will flash RED and GREEN LED if the connector is configured correctly.

    • RED and GREEN on master flash together – attempting to communicate with slave.

    • RED and GREEN on master flash alternately - communication established, master waiting for slave to reset.

    • If communication has been established and slave has reset then the master will read slave firmware version and decide on next action.

    • If the master is not compatible with the slave, Master RED and GREEN LED’s will flash alternately at 1-second rate. No further copy action will take place.

    • If slave firmware version is greater than master: Master RED and GREEN LED’s will flash alternately at 1-second rate. No further copy action will take place.

    • If slave firmware version is same as master then master will start to copy currency data to slave.

    • If slave firmware version is less than master then master will start to copy firmware data to slave.

    Firmware copy: CAUTION: IF MASTER RED LED CHANGES TO SLOW BLINK (1 PER SECOND) THEN

    COMMUNICATION HAS BEEN LOST AND COPYING SHOULD BE RESTARTED FROM BEGINNING.

    • Master RED LED will blink rapidly during firmware copy (the LED will pause from time to time).

    • If master RED LED changed to slow blink (1 per second) then communication has been lost and copying should be restarted from beginning.

    • When firmware copy is complete, slave will reset and Master unit will wait to re-establish communications. (LED flashes as at first stage power-up).

    • When slave is ready, master will initiate currency data copy.

    Currency copy: CAUTION: IF MASTER RED LED CHANGED TO SLOW BLINK (1 PER SECOND) THEN

    COMMUNICATION HAS BEEN LOST AND COPYING SHOULD BE RESTARTED FROM BEGINNING.

    • Master GREEN LED will blink rapidly during the currency copy process (the LED will pause from time to time).

    • When currency copy is complete, Master will show GREEN and RED LED’s continuously and slave will reset.

    • NV10 – NV10 copy is now complete.

    10: Routine Maintenance The NV10 Validator has been designed to minimise any performance variation over time. Much of this is achieved by careful hardware and software design.

    However, depending upon the environment the NV10 is installed in it may at some time require cleaning, belt changing or even re-calibration.

    10.1: Cleaning CAUTION: DO NOT USE SOLVENT BASED CLEANERS SUCH AS ALCOHOL, PETROL,

    METHYLATED SPIRITS, WHITE SPIRIT or PCB CLEANER. THIS WILL RESULT IN PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE VALIDATOR, ONLY USE A MILD DETERGENT.

    Remove the NV10 from its bezel. Push the 2 red Note Path Access Buttons on the sides of the NV10 downwards and then inwards towards the body of the NV10 (see figure 9) and lift to expose the note paths, place them on a clean dry surface. The note path will now be exposed for cleaning, (see figure 10).

    Carefully wipe the surfaces with a soft lint free cloth that has been dampened with a water and mild detergent solution (i.e. household washing up liquid). Take particular care around all the sensor lenses (see figure 10), ensuring they are clean and dry. Clean any metal debris that may be attached to the magnetic sensor.

    If a lens has become badly scratched do not attempt to polish it. Contact ITL for further advise, as there may be damage to the optical properties of the lens.

    CAUTION: WHEN CLEANING THE ‘’RECESSED’’ FRONT SENSOR, USE A SMALL SOFT BRUSH OR COTTON WOOL BUD.

    Appendix D - ESCROW Control The NV10 has a single note escrow facility (pin 10). This allows the Validator to hold onto the note once accepted, and then only stack the note in the cash box when the host machine confirms that the Vend operation has been completed. If no confirmation of the Vend is received then the note will be returned to the customer after 30 seconds, (see figure 19).

    Escrow Accepting

    Escrow Rejection

    If the host machine itself aborts the transaction by setting the corresponding inhibit input high, the note is returned immediately. The sequence of operations is as follows:

    • Pin 10 held low awaiting note insertion.

    • Note inserted. Validator issues a 100ms pulse on the appropriate channel.

    • The host machine initiates vend process.

    • The host machine sets pin 10 high to indicate that it wants the note. If this is not done within 30 seconds the Validator will return the note.

    • The Validator issues a 100ms pulse on the appropriate channel after pin 10 going high to indicate final acceptance of the note. If the signal has not been received within 30 seconds it indicates the customer has forcibly retrieved the note and the vend will be aborted.

    • The vend process is completed.

    • The host machine sets pin 10 low in expectation of the next vend.

    The host machine can force the return of the note to the customer by setting the inhibit line high, at any time before the end of the 30 second time-out. Setting all the inhibits high, for channels above channel 4, will cause a note reject.

    In the event of a note being forcibly removed from the mouth of the NV10 during the 30-second interval, the NV10 will go out of service for 45 seconds.
